Giants waive QB Davis Webb, claim NFL-high six players off waivers

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. - The New York Giants weren't anywhere near finished setting their roster after Saturday's cutdown to 53 players.

The Giants claimed an NFL-high six players Sunday, and waived second-year quarterback Davis Webb in a surprise move, multiple sources told ESPN.

Veteran offensive tackle John Jerry was also waived, a source told ESPN's Adam Schefter. Jerry started 56 games over the past four seasons with the Giants. He was slated to be a backup after they adjusted his contract earlier this year.

The Giants claimed defensive end Mario Edwards (Raiders), wide receiver Kaelin Clay (Bills), defensive back Antonio Hamilton (Raiders), defensive back Michael Jordan (Browns), defensive back Kamrin Moore (Saints) and center Spencer Pulley (Chargers).
